Code 500: Internal error

Hi,


Since yesterday, I'm unable to use the python API to pull data on my window desktop, while terminal itself appears to be functioning ok. Here's the example:


>>> import refinitiv.dataplatform.eikon as ek

>>> ek.set_app_key('XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX')

>>> ek.get_timeseries(['VOD.L', 'GOOG.O'])

Error code 500 | Server Error: Internal Server Error - {"code":500,"message":"connect ECONNREFUSED 159.220.1.19:443","statusMessage":"Internal Server Error"}

    Please follow these 2 steps:

    1. upgrade the Eikon Data API to 1.1.7 (released on 16 Oct 2020)

    pip install eikon --upgrade --no-cache-dir


    2. Shutdown Eikon Desktop, then clear Eikon cache and launch the EIkon Desktop again

    Now, please try your Eikon Data API again.

    If it still does not work, please submit a ticket to Refinitiv Helpdesk at https://my.refinitiv.com/ and ask for the ticket to be escalated to the "Technical Support" group.
